Ecstasy Drydock?

[Daniel A]

I've read that Ecstasy is due for drydock October 6 to 16.  Having been to Freeport Bahamas, I've seen carnival ships in drydock there.  I have a few questions about this drydock.

 

1.  Is the info about planned drydock dates for Ecstasy accurate?

2.  Is the drydock planned for Freeport?

3.  Is Freeport able to handle ships for drydock after Dorian?

 

Thank you.

Those are all good questions. I read the below link yesterday may shed some light on things for drydocks

Thanks for the lead, after looking at your link I came across this on the same website:  https://www.cruiseindustrynews.com/cruise-news/21511-grand-bahama-shipyard-open-for-business-2.html

That appears to answer my question about Freeport being able to continue drydock activities.

Thank you for sharing the link I hadn't run across in yet.

Good information but it doesn't really answer the question. Do we know if The Ecstasy will dry dock as planned?

I read an article today and it stated this: "The shipyard has also announced the scheduled arrival of Carnival Ecstasy on October 5 is on track. The Carnival cruise ships will begin a dry dock upgrade for the Miami-based cruise line which should be completed by October 16."

Does anyone know what will be done during this dry dock? I can't seem to find any specific info about that. Thanks
